Quote: Bullseye "Leeds are a huge club and would have no trouble attracting a decent coach. If we can get Toovey then you can manage too.

The danger of sitting by and not doing anything allows this kind of display to become acceptable. You then lose the winning culture and become a side in decline. That's difficult to stop by just tinkering around the edges.'"

Going off thread slightly, what's your opinion of toovey.

We're not anywhere near close to Hetherington firing the trigger just yet.

We've not even reached the "open letter to the supporters" stage yet.

"Well, I think in Rugby League if you head butt someone there's normally some repercusions":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_25511.jpg



The irony is if the shirts were reversed, i.e. if Cas fielded our team and we fielded theirs, chances are based on the history of this fixture, it would have been close, if not Cas sneaking it.

I look across this board and people aren't debating what the weather might be tomorrow, they are denying what the weather was yesterday.

F*******g rediculous. This is a terrible Leeds squad, the great names we still have are old and injury prone, or simply playing well below their capability. The rest are just not good enough and never will be, particularly the 1980's "A" team standard pack we are in the process of assembling.

Quote: Sacred Cow "Watching you over the last season and a bit it is obviously time for a change. But only four games into the season with a 50/50 win/loss ratio and a glut of injuries means Hetherington won't get shut yet so i reckon BM will be safe until at least the end of the month, if not til easter. Problem is by then the top 8 might be a long way off for you.'"


Hmm interesting saying the Honey Monster "won't get shut" McDermott is permanent staff so sacking is not really an option so are you suggesting he is made redundant? No can do as the role has not "ceased to exist" and IMHO I cannot see the arrogance of McDermott diminishing sufficient for him to fall on the sword so I think we are stuck with McDermott's inept attempts at excuse making for some time to come.

Hetherington however could be ousted by a vote of no confidence by the board and I would suggest that would change things immensely

Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos. And none for Castleford Tigers. Bye!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1140.jpg



McDermott doesn't think we were that bad in the first half.

McDermott. Doesn't. Think. We. Were. That. Bad. The. First. Half.

Amazing.

I have no problem with coaches trying to put a positive spin on things to the press, but to suggest we weren't that far off is way beyond ridiculous.

Ha thats a good point, lets just nick Toovey off Bradford! They are hardly in a position to be turning down transfer fees icon_lol.gif

Who are the assistant coaches at Cronulla?
Maybe that could resolve a number of problems?

Of course he is, I'd forgotten then I remembered how much time he spent on the pitch in the WCC, more than most of the players.
So at least we'd be getting an on-field coach even if he masqueraded as a water carrier.

Last year I stated the McDermott had been hiding behind the experienced members of the squad that had actually lead the team and I was shouted down. Is this message finally sinking in? Remember his previous club and how successful they weren't?

For the record in 2015 we went through the mid 8s undefeated then in 2016 had horrendous injuries and ended up getting relegated. Just saying....

[quote="Gotcha in 2016":12w08s93]McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.[/quote:12w08s93] :lol: :lol: :lol::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_11388.jpg

Thanks for enlightening us with your wisdom Gallanteer.
Now, do feel free to jog on back to the Championship forums. We'll see you in a few years.

Is that because we'll be getting back to SL as Leeds go into freefall?

I honestly think Leeds will turn this around, but thought that last year. There is no point sticking your head in the sand though. The warning signs are there for all to see. GH just needs to grasp the nettle and do something about it as BM just doesn't look up to the job. Sure, you might paper over some cracks but there is a decision looming that could affect several years to come.
